"Now this is impressive" Pitch snickered, brushing black frost from his hand "Who would have thought? Just one touch…" He mumbled to himself "…nothing like Jack Frost"
Those gold-silver eyes fixed upon me once more and I raised an eyebrow at him not lowering my hands.
"Excuse me!" Anna yelled and starting to skid toward us.
The crowd had parted, the music had stooped and everyone was staring at Pitch, Anna and I.
"You the creepy dude in black!" Anna shouted again and Pitch looked exasperated at her "Get away from my sister!"
"Anna I'm fine just stay where you are" I said turning my attention to her and giving Pitch the opportunity he need.
Pitch disappeared and reappeared behind me. His long fingers curled around my neck cutting off my air supply.
"Now you're coming with me" He sneered in my ear.
I elbowed Pitch hard in the stomach and he released my throat. I dashed away from him and put an ice wall between us, its ice spears spread outward toward Pitch.
Pitch grinned, slowly his lips curling up exposing those sharp teeth. His clothes had changed into what look like a robe made of shadows. I felt a twinge of fear at the prospect of trying to defeat him.
"Now Elsa" Pitch scolded disappearing once more
Anna had reached me now and I pulled her closer.
"Honestly Elsa I leave you alone with a guy for five minutes and turns out he has a habit of disappearing and trying to strangle you. You couldn't pick, I don't know, someone normal to dance with?"
I supressed a grin and Anna's blue eyes twinkled mischievously.
"Aww sisterly love, how sickening" Pitch's voice echoed around the ballroom.
Everyone stood stock still as Pitch reappeared at one of the windows.
"I only want to borrow your queen, is that too much to ask?" Pitch asked
"Yes you can't borrow a person" Anna responded
"Pity" Pitch sighed "I didn't want to dirty my hands" He said before disappearing
"You know you want to come with me Elsa" Pitch hissed in my ear
I spun around to nothing.
"I'll give you all one day to hand her over" Pitch addressed the crowd "Or I'll make all your nightmares real"
The crowd mumbled to each other and Anna scowled
Pitch walked toward me and I stood my ground raising my chin slightly.
"I hope you're not afraid of the dark Elsa" He grinned
Pitch stood extremely close to me but I was not afraid. I could tell he liked playing games and he had just set the rules, he would do nothing now until they were broken.
"One day" Pitch whispered before leaning forward and kissing me chastely.
I pushed him away and he laughed before disappearing, his laughter ringing around the ballroom.
